Workshop General Co-Chairs:

   Yutaka Kidawara, NICT, Japan

   Sung Hyon Myaeng, KAIST, Korea

Scope and Theme:

   Advances of speech recognition technologies for mobile devices like

   smart phones has made "speech data" an integral part of mobile data

   management. More and more attentions from both academics and

   industries are paid to voice user interfaces (VUI), multilingual

   translation, audio-video transcription, and even speech-to-blogging

   for mobile devices. Hereafter, management of real-world "field"

   speech data will be crucial for searching, analyzing, sharing, and

   delivering them in mobile service networks. With special emphasis on

   management of real-world "field" speech data, a new ICT platform

   integrating speech communication and cyber-physical systems will be

   introduced. On this platform, we can expect novel applications

   harnessing mobile speech data management, such as knowledge discovery

   form speech log data, situation awareness in real-world human

   communication, hands-free interaction using head-mounted display with

   speech input augmented by linguistic and sensory data. In this

   workshop we aim to provide a venue for academic and industrial

   discussions on "cross-cutting" technologies and open problems on

   speech data management and their applications for mobile devices.

The list of topics includes but is not limited to:

   * Field speech data processing

   * Speech recognition for mobile devices

   * Speech-to-speech translation

   * Spoken dialog systems

   * Voice user interfaces

   * Speech data mining

   * Spoken document retrieval

   * Cyber-physical systems

   * Internet of Things

   * Security and privacy for mobile speech data management

   * Spatio-temporal databases

   * Audio and video transcriptions for mobile multimedia

   * Multimodal processing

   * Data engineering and information management

   * Social networks

   * Smart-X services

   * Service computing & Cloud computing with speech data

Important Dates:

   Submission deadline:                   February 17, 2013 (extended)

   Notification of acceptance:          March 6, 2013

   Final manuscript due:    March 13, 2013

   Workshop date:                          June 3, 2013

Submission Guidelines:

   FSMD 2013 adopts the standard peer review procedure, hence

   submissions should not be anonymized. Our paper submission website

   will be open for papers (up to 10 pages, following the same

   guidelines as the IEEE MDM 2013 full papers) until January 31,

   2013, 11:59 pm PST. In addition to the full-length papers, the

   Program Committee may accept some as short papers which will be

   requested to be shortened. Submission instructions will be

   available at our website:
